OMg whut an origaaanul title. XD

Anyway, thanks to the great refering me to an artist named "Li Xhiquin" [link] who is an astounding illustrator for some of the chinese comic book versions of famous WuXia novels... Whose style officially now rocks my socks and ranks up there for FireNation/Earthkingdom styles with my favorite inuit artist Germaine Arnaktayouk in terms of Watertribe styles.

And since somm'a ya'll already know that I totalee fell deeply in love with the Omashu legend sequence from "Cave of Two Lovers", here is fanart from it. heheh...-3-

Traditional brush and ink for forms, and digital brushing for the borders and ancient rice-paper moulding look. Composing and pencil sketching this thing was a biotch, (basically a n00b attempt which ended up making the objects and the representation of the Omashu mountain itself looked kinda B'Sed and overly centered, though I DO know that this is not the way to compose backgrounds in real traditional asian landscapes... XD...but ehehe, representation vs. realism won me ovar)

and I got nervous and my hand was shakin when I got to the details of their faces, one mistake and their mugs would have ended up so awkward. @w@ Aw, but oh well, still happy with it, the end result was better than planned.
...
Yes, I know I need work on my chinese calligraphy. ^_^;

who knows, maybe someday, I'll make another piece that'll be an improvement on this.

I have a confession to make. This is the couple that I love from The Last Airbender. Not Aang/Katara, not Zuko/Mai, not Sokka/Suki, etc. This pair to me was the most meaningful in their relationship, and you portrayed that well here.

Finally, something not Zuko or Katara related! This is stunning, and it looks very traditional with a nice touch of modern detail to it.
